I only play bullet on iPad and lag it’s more than awful, despite the un-support gave me a new app (oh yeah they have different versions) once I paid this crappy app it worked without lag for a few and then intermittent. Last few day were horrible lag was beyond the usual lag, and despite using different WiFi’s. To make things worst I sent couple emails to un-support and while they still haven’t reply me back pfff..... hallelujah my connection yesterday was suddenly like when I became premium and they “recommend me”a different no public version, no time out, no lag AT ALL.
They are saving too much on servers and blaming ISP’s! Lol

1 in 5 3-0 games destroyed due to premoves taking up to 5 seconds. forget bullet in Android.. it's unplayable.

use ethernet

Same Wifi on a PC is fine.  Using ethernet makes the android app redundant.

Same issue here. My phone on my WiFi using Android app is lagging terribly and costing me games even though I'm getting 7ms ling, 80 MB down and 8 MB up at my phone. Switch to LTE and my ping is 28ms with 6 MB down and 1 MB up and yet no lag...

ya it's a joke on their server. at least we don't have the usual admin coming in and saying that everything's fine and we're all crazy.

yes. same here. 90MB down. 35MB up on fibre. Wifi itself is not the issue. chess via browser on a laptop on the same wifi is perfect. on android, it's a joke.
